Elect the Best Financed, Least Offensive Person For the Job (aka Oregon COTW)[edit]

Hello fellow WikiProject Oregon folks, it’s time for another COTW. But first, just remember that those other guys only want to raise your taxes, but I won’t. A big thank you to those who helped make improvements to Bridges on US 101 and participating in The Semi-Annual Picture Drive. And unlike the other guys, I won’t ship your jobs overseas! This week, we have Mr. Bipartisan Wayne Morse who went from being a Republican to an Independent and finally to a Democrat. Then, let’s see if we can finish up creating articles for members of the Oregon House before their January inauguration.

Greetings WikiProject Oregon folks, it’s time for another edition of the fabled COTW. Thank you to all who helped make improvements to Wayne Morse and creating some members of the Oregon House. This week, we have by request Upper Klamath Lake which think made the news lately with a salmon plan. Then, in honor of the end of the harvest time, we will go farming with Fort Stevens. There is a beautiful link farm in the article that is ripe for harvesting into citations. It should provide for a bountiful feast, or alternatively you can take your hoe to it and weed some out.

coord adjustments[edit]

Hi Trashbag, Thanks for adding coordinates to many of the Oregon State Parks articles, and correcting others. I noticed you removed some information during at least two of your edits. For example this edit removed the sub-region Oregon from the US region (region:US-OR to region:US) and also removed the dimension of the feature (dim:1900). Any particular reason for these removals? —EncMstr (talk) 16:07, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No particular reason than just being new :-). I'll be sure to add those to the rest of the coordinates that I'm adding. Out of curiosity, what does the dimension do? Is there a project or guide for putting coords up? Thanks for the catch! --Trashbag (talk) 16:10, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. dim is the longest dimension of the feature to assist auto scaling mapping services. Its units are implicitly metres, but various metric suffixes can be added: dim:123km, dim:67cm, etc. There's an introductory explanation of using {{coord}} at User:EncMstr/Coord which also links into the various full blown explanations at {{coord}} and WP:GEO. —EncMstr (talk) 16:17, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks again,--Trashbag (talk) 16:19, 15 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hiya, I hope you don't mind if I butt in with a tangentially related discussion. Hey Enc, I've noticed that perhaps the type parameter doesn't have the autoscaling "zoom in" as closely as it used to? (I use Google Maps.) I might be imagining that. Does it help to add the "dim" parameter? I haven't been using that one--I can only memorize so many of these things at a time! Did the Coords WikiProject change something? Did Google? I know for sure that the way GeoHack lists the mapping systems has changed. I used to be able to click right on Google Maps, which is what I use almost exclusively and was up near the top, and now I have to scroll down. I imagine this is a matter of fairness--alphabetical vs. by popularity (i.e. market share)? Feel free to reply on my talk page and just direct me to the relevant discussion. Thanks WP:ORE Coord Guru! Katr67 (talk) 17:37, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Katr- I don't know about the autoscaling/zooming, but there's a link near the top for Google Maps (see this, after discussion at Template talk:GeoTemplate#Order. tedder (talk) 18:05, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
See User:EncMstr/Coord in the section for type (as in type:landmark). A scale parameter overrides the default scale, but the type is still useful—like for the point's icon in the Wikipedia Mini Atlas. I have also recently updated my page to explain dim and elevation. —EncMstr (talk) 21:38, 17 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Howdy WikiProject Oregon folks, time again for the latest installment of As the Collaboration Of The Week Turns.

It Takes a Rim Village - Oregon COTW[edit]

Greetings WikiProject Oregon member, time for the next edition of the Collaboration of the Week. Thanks to those who assisted in improving a few articles over the last month. For May Day edition of the COTW (in Wikipedia time its May already), we have by request Rim Village Historic District and the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (AKA OMSI). Rim Village just needs some refinement to get to GA, while OMSI needs a lot of work in general. As always, click here to opt out of these messages, or click here to make a suggestion for a future COTW. Adios (on May 5th that is). Aboutmovies (talk) 04:46, 1 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:JA9503 You Only Live Twice.jpg[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:JA9503 You Only Live Twice.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Terrillja talk 17:54, 7 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You are now a Reviewer[edit]

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:32, 18 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

WPORE COTW 2.0 - the picture edition[edit]

Greetings one and all. For some of you, this will be your first time receiving one of these messages, as it has been a year since the WikiProject Oregon Collaboration of the Week (COTW) was a regular thing. My hope is it gets back to being a regular thing.

Usually I would go over the past COTW, but we are basically starting out anew. So, without further adieu, this edition is our semi-annual picture drive. We usually try to do it when there is decent weather in the state, and today seems to fit the bill. Now although you are encouraged to go out and take pictures, you can also just search the internet for images that have the proper licensing and upload those. Flickr is one site that has a fair amount of content with the proper licensing (most images on Flickr are not compatible). See WP:COPYRIGHT in general. For some “free” sources, check out the our dormant subproject that has some links to sources.

Lastly, if you need to know what images we need, here are the requests. Please remove the request from the talk page if you add an image.

Finally (this is not image related), as the years have passed, we have lost many good editors, and others, like myself, are no longer in school or are working full-time or both, and thus are less active in the project. The project lives on, but it has created a bit of a power vacuum without a de facto cabal still around all the time. With that in mind, I encourage newer project members to step-up and fill some leadership type roles. Granted, we have no formal ruling junta or anything and no real defined roles, but there are many maintenance type tasks that some of us just took on to keep the project going. For instance, I ran the COTW, was pretty much the only one doing assessments, updating the portal, and even handing out the awards. I am sure others in the project can name what things they have done. The point being, that while I enjoyed those and still do some of those, I simply no longer have the free time to do all of it at a level that the project deserves. That said, I hope to start a discussion at WT:ORE where we can see if some newer editors would like to step-up and take on some of these tasks, which will hopefully make for a more inclusive project, and maybe get us back to the heyday of say 2008 when things were really rocking for WikiProject Oregon.

As always, please click here to opt out of these messages, or click here to make a suggestion for a future COTW. Aboutmovies (talk) 22:02, 23 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

File source problem with File:Airship Gelatine.jpg[edit]

Thank you for uploading File:Airship Gelatine.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

The article Firefly Ranch Airfield has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

I did WP:BEFORE and I just can't seem to find anything that establishes notability for this airport. It appears to just be a small private airport in Oregon that does not meet WP:GNG and while WP:NAIRPORT is just a guideline, it also does not pass that.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
